CHAPTER ELEVEN

Aibek Moon, Orn System, Temple Caverns

Koryss led the way into the cave. “When we get to the split, Ammo and Mennynad, go right. The rest of us will take the left. Stay in communication. If they’re in the right-hand channel, hold them there or terminate if you can.”

“Acknowledged,” confirmed Ammo and Mennynad in unison through their helmet audio communicators.

The warriors made their way through the tunnels in the half light, silently going their separate ways when it came to the point of divergence. Though they had drilled this a hundred times over the years, the thought of actually capturing someone was something novel.

Jendyg found himself wondering if in fact this was the correct course of action. Perhaps Gagai had been right all along, and he had just been losing faith? Faced with the possibility that their most sacred artifact might fall into the wrong hands, he felt his previous world view begin to crumble with each step he took into the caves.

Gagai had forged ahead of the four remaining in the troop, more determined than ever that they should not fail. As they approached the opening with the crevasse he quickened his pace, making it hard for the others to keep up. For a large warrior who found himself lapsing in his training after all these years, he moved fast.

He disappeared out onto the ledge and started jogging along the way towards the bridge. The others heard him shout out as they emerged shortly after him. Then they saw what he was shouting at. Across the crevasse they could see the two figures, one blue, one pink, and both scaleless, hurrying along, having already crossed the bridge.

He knew that there was no place for them to go, but there wasn’t a Zhyn present who wasn’t feeling this was too close for comfort.

Koryss immediately started issuing tactical orders, breathing heavily to keep up with Gagai. “The bridge will only take two at a time. I’ll go ahead with Gagai. Then Jendyg and Naldrir, you can follow once we’re over. Confirm.”

“Confirmed,” Naldrir responded immediately. Jendyg answered a second later, but Gagai was almost at the bridge. He barely hesitated, glancing back just for a fraction of a second to see that his team were following him before stepping onto the bridge and pressing on.
